Answer: The closeness, arrangement and motion of the particles in a substance change when it changes state. Materials are a store of internal energy , due to the motion of particles and the chemical bonds between them. When a substance is heated, its internal energy increases: the movement of its particles increases.
Explanation:
Answer:
-The mole is appropriate only for counting things that are very small.
-One mole is a very large number of something.
-A molecule of water is much smaller than a grain of sand.
Explanation:
Carbon has 4 valence electrons so to gain a noble gas electron configuration, which has 8 valence electrons and is the most electrically stable, carbon needs 4 more electrons.
Answer:
D. A compound can be separated into two or more elements through a chemical reaction.
Explanation:
By method of elimination, we are going t obtain the correct option.
A. A compound is made up of a single atom.
This is wrong because, a compound can contain more than one atom. An example is H2O
B. A compound is made up of many atoms that are all the same type.
This is wrong because a compound can contain atoms of different elements. An example is H2O. It contains atoms of hydrogen and oxygen.
C. A compound can be separated into two or more elements through physical processes.
This is wrong. H2O being a compound cannot be separated by ordinary physical means.
D. A compound can be separated into two or more elements through a chemical reaction.
This is the correct option.
